Learning Observed
Zsofia was writing with me today. She started to write her story “I went to McDonalds”. She then said that she was finished. We are currently working on writing at least two sentences, so I asked her what else could she could tell me about, “who did she go with?”, “What did she eat?”. Zsofia decided to write, “I went with my dad and my mum and my baby sister.”

Narrative Assessment - iExplore - Term 3, 2015



Learner: Zsofia                    Learning Coach: Miriam Kamsteeg     
Date: Term 3, Weeks 5-7, 2015
Learning Area: iExplore - Reflections - Science
Learning Observed
Zsofia choose to be a part of the iExplore group looking at reflections. We first brainstormed where we would be able to see our reflections. Then we had walk around the school to see what we could find our reflection in. As a group we decided that we all wanted to explore reflections with mirrors. We spent time using mirrors to create reflections. We discovered that you could get the sun on the mirror and send it around the room, you can look under things like the shelves on wheels, if you hold your mirror up to another mirror you can see lots of mirrors and we explored mirror writing.
Evidence of learning

Zsofia is showing how she can use a mirror to reflect the sun on another surface.
Key Competencies/Vision Principles
Zsofia showed Collaboration by  working with other Learners to investigate different ways to show/ find reflections (Participating and Contributing). They also showed that they were Capable by sharing their learning back on the video.
Zsofia explored many different ways to reflect with mirrors (Thinking).
Next Learning Steps
  • Share learning with other Learners not part of the iExplore group
  • Explore with other items that reflect
  • Share learning with home.
